Fascinated by the camera: crowds of children in Artillery Lane, looking towards Artillery Passage.


a packed cart waits for its horse at the corner of Steward Street and Artillery Lane. The building was demolished in 1907


crazy scaffolding shores up a row of higgledy-piggledy houses


Crispin Street in the direction of Spitalfields Market


An unusally detailed description of this photograph says: Looking south towards Aldgate Station showing space occupied by the Inner Circle Railway taken from Cutler Street at the corner of Harrow Alley, looking down Back Gravel Lane


Middlesex Street with Sandy's Row on the right


boys sporting flat caps and white collars in Sandy's Row, looking south from Artillery Lane


a horde of children cram into the piquantly-named Frying Pan Alley


Sandy's Row, at the end of Frying Pan Alley


an imposing building in Artillery Lane, seen from Bishopsgate


an ornate lamp post in grim-looking Brushfield Street


Middlesex Street from Bishopsgate
